My name is Leslye Chang and I’m a Graphic Designer and Illustrator based in Queens,
New York. Graduated from the Fashion Institute of Technology with a BFA and I’m currently working as a freelance and on-site graphic designer. Throughout the years I have honed my creativity and skills, making it into a full-time career. I’m passionate about creating, brainstorming, and learning! My work is mostly digital with occasional painting and experimentation with mediums like pen and ink. I’m fan of maximalism and fashion.
My style often features strong line work
and an eye for detail. I enjoy playing with typography mixing in with my illustrations. I am inspired by 70’s retro graphic designs, psychedelic art styles and those old school vintage rock posters. My influence comes from women, fashion, music and nature. I have created artwork that has been displayed on the walls of FIT and on their social media outlets. My uplifting and colorful work is a gentle reminder that you can find fun and playfulness in everyday life.
